Abstract
The influence of 30 keV He$^+$ ion irradiation on structural, electronic and magnetic properties of Co$_2$MnSi thin films with B2 order was investigated. It was found, that irradiation with light ions can improve the local chemical order. This provokes changes of the electronic structure and element-specific magnetization towards the bulk properties of the well-ordered Co$_2$MnSi Heusler compound with L2$_1$ structure.
